Today I took Penelope for a free trial class at My Gym Children's Fitness Center. I heard about it from a mom in my meetup group so I thought we would check it out to see if it was something we would be interested in. The class for her age group is called Gymsters. It is a one hour class that includes singing,...
Took Penelope to story time at Russo's books again. She had a blast singing and dancing with all the other cute kiddies. Here she is shortly after we got home. She went in her room to play and after some short silence I went in to check on her and this is what I found. Little girl was pooped! ...
While I was making our Cajun Chicken Pasta tonight I noticed that it was suddenly very quiet . I thought I better go check on Penelope since she is usually in the same room as me and only goes into her room to bring all her toys out. When I walked into her room I didn't notice her at first..."Penelope, where are you?"...

I decided to post twice tonight since it just didn't seem right to post about food in the last post. ;p I found this cute little box at Dollar Tree yesterday so I put Penelope's lunch in it today. Nothing exciting...I made chicken salad with the leftover roasted chicken we had for dinner last night so she had a Chicken Salad Sandwich on...
Guess who made P in the potty! She went like 5 times today! We had an accident early this morning and then she didn't go at all before her nap. I've been putting diapers on before her nap so when she woke up I took it off and told her she had to use the potty before we could go on a walk...
Well today was day one of our three day potty training. No going in the the potty but she sure went on the tile floor and in her bedroom a few times. She didn't like it and would cry after she went so I am hoping she will figure it out tomorrow. I am going to try a couple more days and if...
I made the blueberry Barefoot Contessa pancakes from the mix my sister bought me for breakfast today. Chris said they were really good and here are his slathered in the Maine Blueberry Syrup. I don't like pancakes so Chris and Penelope enjoyed them while I ate a toasted bagel with cream cheese and smoked salmon. Yum! Chris also said the Barefoot Contessa coffee...
I took Penelope to another story time today, this one was at Barnes & Noble. Miss Stacie read 2 books then past out coloring pages and crayons for the little ones to color. One of the other moms there said Penelope was really good at scribbling. Hehe :) After that Miss Stacie passed out Rice Krispy treats so Penelope had her very first...
Thought I would let you all know that seehere is offering 50 free 4x8 photo cards with the coupon code: newbaby. All you pay is the $4.99 for shipping! These would make great Valentine cards! Yikes Valentines Day already! That also means one little girl is going to be turning two really soon. I can't believe she is going to be two already....
Penelope's dentist appointment went great. Her dentist was awesome and he called her extraordinary. He and the tech said they had never had a patient that young that was that good. She just sat there and let the dentist clean away at her teeth. I had been preparing her for the visit for the last couple of weeks by telling her about the...
I didn't take too many pictures while we were in San Diego but here are a couple of Penelope. We went with great grandma to her favorite Chinese buffet but since it was so hot Penelope didn't feel much like eating so she had some strawberries, grapes and jello. Here she is very excited about her lunch and here she is saying "all...
We are back from San Diego! We had a great time visiting with family and of course it was hot as it always is when I visit. It only took 3 hours and 30 minutes each way, we didn't hit any traffic, Wheee! Penelope was so good in the car, but then again she is so use to traveling. On the way back...
Today I took Penelope to story time at a bookstore here called Russo's Books. It was our first time going and we will definitely be going back. We were about 5 minutes late and the place was crawling with little ones and their parents. Next time I have to remember to get there early so we can find a good seat. The lady...
We woke up this morning and decided to take Penelope to our local zoo, CALM. It's really small, needs some maintenance and doesn't have very many animals but Penelope had a blast and that made the $7.00 admission worth it. All the animals are native to California. Here is a link so you can see the animals we saw. I was bummed that...
